**Sojourns Through The Septiac: An Evolutionary Concept Album**<\/h1>\n
*Sojourns Through The Septiac* is a groundbreaking concept album that explores the journey of an incorporeal entity navigating through seven dimensions of time and reality.<\/div>\n
Each track signifies a unique chapter in the entity’s evolution:<\/div>\n
1. **Elemental Prisms** – Traces the journey through an antediluvian global disaster.<\/div>\n
2. **Nature of Descent** – Explores the primal, feral aspect of human nature.<\/div>\n
3. **Drowning Pisces** – Propels the entity through the cosmos into a new astrological age.<\/div>\n
4. **(Tlachallel) The Arcing Obsidian** – Depicts a sacrificial ascent to the apex of an Aztec pyramid.<\/div>\n
5. **Antimatter Initiates** – An initiation into the sacred rites of a prehistoric cult.<\/div>\n
6. **The Suicides of Saturn** – Illustrates a harrowing cycle of self-destruction.<\/div>\n
7. **Raising the Serpent** – Concludes with a recreation through ancient Egyptian magic.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Originally recorded at **Oblivion Studios** in 1998 and self-released in 1999, the album’s 2018 re-release by **Lost Apparitions Records** includes two bonus tracks: a cover of OBLIVION’s thrash-metal classic “Bodies on Ice” and “Infernal Imprint,” composed by new MORBIUS member Mike Bossier, marking the band’s final recording.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The accompanying CD booklet contains essential keys for deciphering the mysteries of the Septiac, featuring study quotations, cryptic symbols, and Mayan codes that enhance the listening experience.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The original trio\u2014**Andy Sylvester, Matt Sylvester, and Jason Weir**\u2014dedicated three years to crafting the album, culminating in a research trip to Egypt that informed their songwriting process.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The opening of “Antimatter Initiates” features a chant recorded within the iconic Red Pyramid at Dahshur, capturing a booming resonance generated by the band, fellow tour members, and author **John Anthony West**.<\/div>\n
